About this car

With 101,357 miles on the clock, this 2012 BMW 3 Series Sport Plus Edition has done roughly 3,600 more miles than a typical 2012 BMW 3 Series. At £3,745, this car is advertised £1,497 below our estimated market asking price of £5,242. This is a large difference, so check the price and vehicle details with the dealer. To estimate its market asking price, we analyse UK dealer adverts for 6,849 BMW 3 Series cars across different ages and specifications. Since we first spotted the advert 147 days ago, the asking price has dropped by £1,550. The recorded MOT expired on 18 October 2026, so ask the dealer whether it has been renewed.
